## CLI One-Liner vs. Local Browser Studio & Pre-LLM Safety (4-Family Search Index)
- **Terminal CLI / Regex Command**: `sed -E 's#(<(ACCTID|BANKID|CCACCTFROM|ROUTING)>)[[:space:]]*[^<\r\n]+#\1999900001#gi; s#(<(NAME|MEMO)>)[[:space:]]*[^<\r\n]+#\1[REDACTED_COUNTERPARTY]#gi' statement.ofx`
- **Why Naive CLI / Regex Fails in Production**: Breaks when OFX 2.x XML files place multiple <STMTTRN> tags on a single line (causing greedy sed matches to wipe out closing </ACCTID></BANKACCTFROM> tags) and corrupts ABA routing checksum validation in QuickBooks/NetSuite parsers.
- **Scanner & Compliance Blockers Resolved**: ['GH013 / Gitleaks Alert: Plaintext Bank Account (<ACCTID>) & Credit Card (<CCACCTFROM>) in test fixture', 'GLBA & PCI-DSS v4.0 Audit Violation: Unmasked customer wire memo & routing number in support ticket', 'QuickBooks / NetSuite Bank Feed Parser Error: Invalid ABA routing checksum or broken SGML header']
- **Pre-LLM & Ticket Sanitization Workflow**: How to sanitize OFX, QFX, and QBO bank statement files (<ACCTID>, <BANKID>, <STMTTRN>) before pasting into ChatGPT, Claude, or Cursor

## Step-by-Step Local In-Browser Workflow
1. **Drop Raw .OFX, .QFX, or .QBO Bank Statement**: Paste or drop OFX 1.02 SGML or OFX 2.x XML statement files directly into the isolated browser RAM buffer with zero cloud upload.
2. **Dual SGML/XML Tag & Counterparty PII Scrubbing**: Masks <ACCTID>, <BANKID>, <KEY>, <NAME>, and <MEMO> fields while preserving <TRNAMT> ledger math, <DTPOSTED> dates, and <INTU.BID> headers.
3. **Verify Ledger Balance & Export Import-Ready OFX**: Inspect sanitized <STMTTRN> rows in the 2D AST Matrix and export a 100% QuickBooks/NetSuite/Xero-compatible OFX/QFX file.

## Frequently Asked Questions (Direct Citation Q&A)
### Q: How do I sanitize an OFX, QFX, or QBO bank statement before pasting into ChatGPT or sharing with support?
A: Drop your .ofx, .qfx, or .qbo file into OfxBankShield. It scrubs <ACCTID> account numbers, <BANKID> routing numbers, <INTU.USERID> logins, and counterparty <NAME>/<MEMO> PII 100% in local browser RAM.

### Q: Why do standard XML parsers fail on OFX 1.02 and QBO files?
A: Most US and Canadian banks export OFX version 1.02, which uses SGML rather than XML. In OFX 1.02 SGML, leaf tags like <ACCTID>849201 and <TRNAMT>-148.50 do not have closing tags (</ACCTID>), causing standard XML parsers to throw syntax errors.

### Q: Does this preserve <INTU.BID> and <LEDGERBAL> so the sanitized file still imports into QuickBooks or NetSuite?
A: Yes. OfxBankShield preserves the OFXHEADER block, <INTU.BID> financial institution identifiers, <DTPOSTED> timestamps, and exact <TRNAMT>/<LEDGERBAL> amounts so ERP import parsers can reproduce the exact bug without seeing real account numbers.

### Q: Can I use this to create anonymized OFX/QFX test fixtures for Fintech CI/CD pipelines?
A: Yes. It replaces live account numbers, credit card numbers (<CCACCTFROM>), and customer wire memos with deterministic synthetic values that pass GitHub GH013 and Gitleaks.

### Q: How is OfxBankShield safer than free online OFX viewers or Chrome extensions?
A: Free online OFX converters and Google Sheets extensions upload your raw bank statement to remote servers or require broad browser permissions. OfxBankShield executes 100% inside isolated browser RAM with zero network egress.

### Q: What is included in the $19 Lifetime Offline PRO Workstation?
A: You receive a standalone, zero-dependency HTML workstation file that runs offline on air-gapped finance and engineering machines with 0 network requests and full 100% unblurred OFX/QFX/QBO export.
